Saint Mary's beacon. [volume] (Leonard Town, Md.) 1867-1983, 1887-04-07

Died, at his residence in Charles county,
Md, in the 23rd year of his age, Mr.. AM
BROSE CARRICO, son of the late Mr..
Thomas Carrico.
Mr.. Carrico graduated at Charlotte Hall
Academy, and afterwards pursued the stu
dies of the postgraduate course in the same
institution. Early in life he determined to
devote his energies 10 the cause of religion,
and entered st. Charles College (ecclesias-
tic) for the purpose of fitting himseiffor adj
mission TO the order of the Society of Je-
sus." At ST. Charles he remained nearly
four years, being compelled 10 abandon ac-
tive College work on account of failing
health in the latter part of the fourth year.
Early in life Mr.. Carrico evinced remarka-
BILE mental ability. At Charlotte Hall he
left a brilliant record, which was SO we'll
sustained at ST. Charles College that he
was pronounced young man of "magniti-
cent parts" and every means were taken
By the management of that institution To
check the. progress Of pulmonary COM
plant rapidly developing into the fatal
stages of consumption.
Thinking a change Of climate would
probably be the sIreSt means of eifecting a
cure he was sent to Florida. Deriving no
material benefit from the climatic superior
ity of that locality, he went thence to Los
Angeles, California Here his vitality rap
idly failed, so he determined TO return 10
his home in Charles county, Nd, where he
arrived March 9th, ult, and died the 23rd
of same month. Our acquaintance with
Mr.. Carrico, though Of short duration, was
amply sufficient to he impressed with the
strong moral character Of the man.
Possessing principles founded upon the
clearest conception Of Right, no man can il
be said he did an injustice. As a friend, he
was steadiast and sincere. As Christian,
ever mindful of his Christian obligations.
Through all the sufferings of his lingering
illness, he kept "a correspondence fixed
with Heaven" and chung with fond tena-
city 10 the hope of some day entering upon
the active duties of the vocation of his life
until the approach of death put an end TO
earthly hopes, when resigned in calm sub
mission TO the will of God he died. *Sx
At his residence, in st. Inigo's District,
on the Both ultimo. JOHN w. WRIGHT.
SON, aged about IS years.
Although the deceased was not native
of this county, having been born and rear
ell in one of the Eastern Shore counties of
this State, vet, when he came and settled
among us, he, by his uniform good conduct,
honesty of purpose and exemplary habits,
So endeared himself to Us that We had
long ago claimed him as our own: and
this the county of his adoption and of
his choice has been always willing and
ready e. award 90 him the well merited
appellatiOn Of the good man and useful
citizen. Thus, while we sincerely regret
the departure from our midst of one who
has in every respect proved himself worthy,
we, ut the same time offer 10 his surviving
widow and children our warmest and ten
! derest sympathies in this, the hour of the
saddeSt bereavement which could have be-
fallen them, and humbly trust that his
whole life here, consecrated TO duty, yea,
TO duty well performed, is an earnest Of an
inheritance beyond, which will grow
brighter and brighter, until the perfect
day" ID.
